On the other hand, the 5-speed stick versions have a 0.79 overdrive and are equipped with a 3.23 axle unless optioned otherwise, for a final drive ratio of 2.55:1. Very close to the same, but the automatic actually turns a few more RPM at cruise than the stick.
Old post, but:
The manuals with 4.0 have 3.07s in the rear, 2.5l Manuals have 4.11s.
The ax-15 manual has a .85 fifth gear, so does the ax-5. (4.0 and 2.5 manual transmissions)
Auto 4.0 has 3.55s, or 3.73s with the towing package.
.75 overdrive in the AW4 (only auto trans used with 4.0)
The TF-99 used with the 2.5l in 91 has a 1:1 final gear.
The 30RH/32RH used '94-'00 with 2.5l had a 1:1 final gear also.
Anyway, My girlfriends Stock 96 Cherokee. 4.0l Auto, no lift and 235/75s is at ~2100 at an indicated 70MPH.
Dont know what my 89 runs at, I dont have a tach
